I just received this coat today. It's a beautiful coat! I even love the collar, because I like to wear my long hair up most of the time. The hood is adorable and I'm still able to wear it, with my hair up and it's doesn't mess up my style, or without the hood on and the collar up to keep my neck warm.
The shoulders fit great. This is why I didn't return it. It's a little bigger in the waist than I would like, however, I'm able to get it tailored if I choose to do so. I did ordered the extra large. I wanted to be able to wear a sweater underneath it and I'm able to do so and still feel comfortable in this coat. The sleeves are a little long on me, however, I'm able to roll them inside and it looks great still. I will have those tailored soon. They stay in place and no one can tell and it still feels comfortable.
So I'm 5'2 and a half and my weight is 135. What I do wish everyone that posted a review would have posted breast size, this is where I decide if I'm going to fit into a jacket and if it's true to size. I'm a 38 DDD and I still have room for a sweater. If the shoulders were too small, or too big, I would have returned this coat, however, the way it's designed, it makes me look like this was tailored for my top area, making me look smaller. I don't have big arms and I'm still able to wear a sweater and it looks lovely.
I am smaller on the bottom and waist area, so I do think a few less inches around the waist would look better, however, it's a winter coat, so I'm not worried about it so much. I love the look of the shoulders on me, it's perfect and gives me a nice tailored look.
This coat wouldn't look good with a belt, the lines they used to tailor this coat gives it enough tailored look to make you look taller and slimming.
I had thought about returning it for a large, however, my boyfriend said he thought it looked great and I would think the shoulders would be too tight from reading everyone else post. I'm very happy with it. It looks slimming with it opened as well.
